I just added preliminary support for icon themes. For now it works with
Faenza theme only, otherwise it defaults to the "classic" look. It's
still work in progress, which needs to be tested for readability with as
broad sample of exe files as possible. If You are willing to help,
please follow these instructions:

1) Install the attached tarball:

sudo tar xjvf gnome-exe-thumbnailer-faenza.tar.bz2 -C /
sudo gconf-schemas --register gnome-exe-thumbnailer.schemas

2) Manually switch to one of the Faenza icon themes (if it's not set
already), or add "Faenza" as third parameter to the specific thumbnailer
command:

gconftool --set 
/desktop/gnome/thumbnailers/application@x-ms-dos-executable/command --type 
string "/usr/bin/gnome-exe-thumbnailer.sh %i %o Faenza"
gconftool --set /desktop/gnome/thumbnailers/application@x-msdownload/command 
--type string "/usr/bin/gnome-exe-thumbnailer.sh %i %o Faenza"

3) Clear the thumbnail cache and restart Nautilus:

nautilus -q; rm -r ~/.thumbnails; sleep 1; nautilus

4) Test test test. Please report any issues here in the form of attached
screenshot of problematic thumbnails with the hint where to legally
obtain the source exe/dll files (if possible).
